~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: Staying at an Inn in Wessixs, Elven Kingdom)~~~

~~~(Time: 7:20 PM)~~~

Helda and Melimora have been gone for hours now, and the cover of the night has descended upon the rest of Wessixs. My hood is adorned, and I'm ready to go out searching for them. Everyone else is staying behind in case they come back, and I'm looking forward to seeing the city at night. Wessixs is a pretty city, and night poses less risk of an incident.

Keeping out of trouble is my main objective. My height isn't an issue either, male elves are naturally tall, and I'm the average height among elves. "I'll come back before midnight, and if they're not back here by then, we'll all need to start searching." My final words reach everyone as I exit the room. Not giving them any room to reject my order.

I'm quick to leave the Inn, and I'm already walking down one of the roads. I can't do any in-depth searching. I don't know this place at all. All I can do is keep my eyes and ears open for them. Helda and Melimora are powerful and don't need my help. But they shouldn't have been gone this long, and it's making me worry. 

More often than not, something bad happens after someone says they'll be back at a specific time and they're not back yet. "What do you know about the players?" I'm stopped in my tracks by a conversation that's happening ahead of me. I get over my stupor and slowly follow behind. Keeping within hearing distance. 

Never have I heard an NPC refer to a new person as a player. Not since the launch and the merging of our worlds. "Not much, but the elven royal family says that they're different than the rest of us. They go by another name called new people, but Players is how they refer to each other." This is... Unexpected... I knew it'd be different here, but not like this.

The Eleven Kingdom and society are doing something that I haven't seen. Adapting to the Players and trying to learn more about them at a deeper level. The rest of Gaia only sees Players as people to exploit and ignore. Our immortality makes us valuable soldiers, and I can see why that'd be of interest to the Elven Kingdom. They want to use us too...

They're still unaware of my presence, and it's allowing me to continue listening to their conversation. "You hear about the mobilization against the orc species. Apparently, we're invading their territory and exterminating them forever. The royal family is mobilizing millions for this." Wow... There is a lot going on here that I didn't know about.

The elves have a burning hatred for orcs, and I can understand that. They're cruel and vile creatures, lacking mercy and any redeeming qualities. "The Eternal Light is preparing to hire the strongest of The Adventurers Guild to help us too. The thought of outsiders helping us is making the nobility nervous." The Eternal Light... It's the Elven version of The Church of Light...

One of the elves leans forward in a comical manner and releases a long sigh, and shrugs his shoulders. "I still can't believe that the royal family demanded that Slayer Zern marries into the family. The Son of Arch-Angel Michael isn't some object. It's absolutely absurd in my opinion..." This I already knew of. Worldwide Announcements are to thank for that.

It's been quite some time since I last heard a Worldwide Announcement, and I hardly realized they were gone. Goes to show how little I cared for them. "I hear what you mean. It's hard to see any logic in the royal family's decisions these days. They've been ruling since before I was born." Never thought I'd overhear such an interesting conversation on a night stroll.

I also don't relish the thought of being treated like an object that can be handed around. That gives me some perspective on how some people feel, and I thought it was bullshit. Probably cause I've never objectified someone, but I understand now. "Do you think civilians will be asked to join in the crusade against the orcs?" That's something that I'd also like to know.

His friend shrugs his shoulders and places his hands in his pockets. "Not from anything that I've heard, but who knows... The royal family might do something last minute to pull all healthy males into the war..." Elven society is very strict on who's let into its military. Only men are allowed, and it's been like this for thousands of years here.

At least from what I understand about the general lore surrounding the elven people. "I swear, if I'm demanded to join, I'm leaving our lands for good. Any place is better than here at this point... I'm tired of being treated less than what I'm worth by the Nobility and Purebloods..." From the sound of that, he's not happy about the things going on here.

I'm willing to bet there are millions more elven people that have the same opinion as him, and the royal family is too arrogant or out of place to even comprehend what's happening in their country. "I heard that the human Church of Light is pushing into Monster Territory soon. Saintess Lucy has been killing monsters by the thousands." I've met Saintess Lucy, and that doesn't surprise me.

She's arrogant in her power, but that's because she's rarely ever met someone that's stronger than herself. Our first and only interaction left her on her knees and borderline unconscious from my Divine Pressure Exertion. "The war is supposed to end soon at this rate. The Monster Horde is close to breaking." Never underestimate the monsters...

~~~(POV: Helda Vora)~~~

~~~(Location: Meeting with Relozz, Wessixs, Elven Kingdom)~~~

~~~(Time: 7:55 PM)~~~

~~~(Warning: Disturbing Content Ahead, Read at your own caution)~~~

Relozz hasn't changed at all in the last 100 years... We're looking up at him... He's sitting on a mock throne, covered in naked elven women... It's sickening seeing such a scene... His hand slides between one of the woman's legs, and he inserts his fingers as he stares down at us. She releases mindless moans of pleasure. Brainwashed from this treatment for so long...

It's taking all my will not to kill him here and now, and I don't get this way for no reason. It sucks that we need his skills in forgery and creating false identities... His connections... "Now, what do I owe the pleasure of your visit, Helda? Come to finally give yourself to me?" His face twists into a sick smile that's full of everything vile in this world.

Melimora and I are on our guards, and I'm ready to fight at a moment's notice. "We need false identities, nobility papers, everything that you can think of to get into the elven capital." My answer is concise and to the point. His face turns to its usual neutral look, seeing that I'm not reacting the way he wants me to.

He stands up, and the women around him move off of him and out of the way. He's completely naked himself, and it's a disgusting sight. He's covered in sweat, and the odor from their activities is all around the room. The only thing that makes this somewhat acceptable is his tiny penis. "Like what you see?" Neither Melimora nor I have looked anywhere other than his face.

He holds out his arms and a robe appears out of thin air, and he wraps himself. "Follow me so we can discuss business. I don't want the whores to hear about my work." He starts walking towards one of the doors, and we follow behind him. His demands are always outrageous and sick, and I'll try to find some form that doesn't involve physically pleasuring him or finding someone who will.
